We say that an endomorphism $\\Phi\\colon \\mathbb{P}_1\\to \\mathbb{P}_1$ has good reduction at $v$ if there exists a model $\\Psi$ for $\\Phi$ such that $\\deg\\Psi_v$, the degree of the reduction of $\\Psi$ modulo $v$, equals $\\deg\\Psi$ and $\\Psi_v$ is separable. We prove a criterion for good reduction that is the natural generalization of a result due to Zannier in \\cite{Uz3}. Our result is in connection with other two notions of good reduction, the simple and the critically good reduction. The last part of our article is dedicated to prove a characterization of the maps whose iterates, in a certain sense, preserve the critically good reduction.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-19T20:15:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11S15", "37P05", "14G99" ], "keywords": [ "branch locus", "projective line", "endomorphism", "non archimedean valuation", "natural generalization" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150505168C" } } }
